Indiana Pacers general manager Chad Buchanan shared his thoughts on Pacers lottery pick Jarace Walker last week, including the future of the young forward.
INDIANAPOLIS — Jarace Walker didn't play much in his first season with the Indiana Pacers. The rookie forward, who was selected eighth overall last year by the blue and gold after a draft-night trade, was far down in the rotation on a deep Pacers team.
That made it hard for some to get a proper evaluation of the 20-year old. But the team, who saw the Maryland native every day in practices and games, still feels great about their 2023 lottery pick. General manager Chad Buchanan shared some thoughts on Walker and the team's plan for his future during his exit interview at the end of the 2023-24 season.
Walker went on to average 3.6 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game in the NBA. His passing and three-point shooting were the standout abilities for the young forward in year one.
